Dave: Like most others around here, I have looked at thousands of
photos of AP. Anyone have any photos showing a "Blacks Only"
or "Whites Only" sign on the beach from the 50's? If there was one
on every beach, I imaging there must be some pictures.
Must say by the time I was there (born 63) there certainly weren't
any. Civil Rights Act of 1964, perhaps?
